I have been recording with condenser mics for a good few years now. I've always swayed towards RODE as I like the brand. I wanted something versatile and easy to use with my ipad as well as laptop, this is perfect! I did have to buy the Lighting to camera adapter from amazon but that's not a problem. Sound quality wise, I highly recommend as it's great. It has a very sensitive pickup so in a non treated room this will pick up everything. The built in pop shield hides plosives so well. The only downside to this mic is the dial controls the monitoring, where it should have maybe controlled the input. I like to use the monitoring from the software anyways however if I use the output on the mic I can hear both at the same time and its trippy. I don't consider myself a tech or recording expert at all. However I do like to record vocals. So if you're like me and things are simple - good sound, easy to use - then this is the mic for you. Ps it also looks awesome!

Compact, high quality condenser mic, maybe not quite to Rode NT standard but pretty good. Great little heavy stand on base, with magnetic grab. Or pull out plug from threaded insert and mount on your own stand or arm. Plug and play, no driver to load. Appears to use same driver as my Rode NT. Built in pop filter. It simply feels superior quality, lovely matt black, and metal construction so it is reassuringly heavy. I am very pleased with it, and will now chuck my cheaper mic in the bin where it belongs.

I like the microphone it's clear loud and doesn't pick up loads of back ground noise so it's perfect for me. I mean as a usb mic it's probably the best your going to get. Happy with mine comes with table mount if you wanted I went for a boom arm by rode too. There isn't software for it or anything you do it all in the windows options which I was kinda expecting more from rode but it works fine so I can't moan.

Brilliant pice of gear . Went through the mill with pod mic just OTT for what small negligible difference there may be . A small minor tweak in wherever DAW you use and brilliant. Really came home , keep of the bandwagon by following the rest , just buy what fits the bill . NT mini superb .

I'm quite impressed! I bought it for my iPad gig (Cubasis etc.), which I tend to use in different rooms, and in the future I plan to take with me during holidays. I have a small plastic box for all the iPad accessories: cables, headphones, dongle, USB hub etc. Because of its dimensions and shape, this mic nicely fits into it! As for the sound, I own the NT1-A, and to my ears they sound very similar. Some online reviews say they're not the same, which is understandable, because they're differently shaped mics. There are sacrifices made in order to produce such a small mic. But I'd say you probably want to sacrifice the same response curve for the small footprint and mobility. Additionally, I use it mainly to create new ideas, not the final versions of songs. It's more than perfect for this use. The mic feels very robust and is heavy. When I plugged it into my iPad, its gain was just right from the start, and I never felt a need to tweak it. The experience is totally plug and play. It plays really well channel strip of Cubasis: the default noise gate and compressor settings. It connects to my iPad Pro (2017) via 1. powered Atolla USB hub and 2. lightning to USB camera adapter. To Rode: there is a huge market behind the iOS musicians community. I think this is a perfect mike for "on the go", but until I actually tried it, I had doubts. I think you should market it as such, make more "on the go" videos, show how to use it with an iPad, how to pack it to backpack and carry around.. Your potential buyers are really looking for this type of information.

BUYER BEWARE : I love this mic sounds really clear and well, but to record, you need to have a headset plugged into the back to hear yourself talk, and then after you won't be able to hear it back at all. I tested out the mic in Audacity I wouldn't even recommend it I don't know why this product has such good Reviews. Yes I done my research, but there is no mention off being able to talk into the microphone whilst recording in Audactiy, and then not hear it after with your headphones plugged into your computer.

Wasn't sure what to expect with this as it's so new that there's very little info about it on the net, but I'm glad I gave it a chance! The build of the microphone is nice - got a good weight to it and feels solid and compact. Clever magnetic base and appears to have some kind of suspension inside as desk noises aren't too prevalent when resting. But most importantly it SOUNDS good. Well balanced, and clear, with a decently low noise floor. It's perhaps not as 'smooth' as some microphones, but if you're the kind of person to notice you probably wouldn't be looking at a USB microphone. The USB aspect is great too - just plug it in and iff you go! Definitely recommended and would buy again. Rode has delivered as usual!
